Tex Morton — He Holds The Lantern

Текст песни с аккордами

    	    	Вступление

G                       C
I know the best hearted fellow 

     D7                   G
He'd even give his oldest shirt a way

                              C
The neighbors all know he's a kind hearted fellow
 
    D7                           G
And here's what you’ll hear them say


                               C                G
He holds the lantern while his mother chops the wood

                             D7
He holds the lantern just as any good son should

G                          C               G
He's mighty handy and he's always standing by

           C                         D7                  G
When she's through chopping one load he'll get her a new supply
 

                               D7
And when she is exhausted he's equal to the test

                                  G
He lays right down beside her and helps his ma to rest

                         C
While she is axing he is busily relaxing

             G                 D7               G
He holds the lantern while his mother chops the wood


                               C                G
He holds the lantern while his mother chops the wood

                            D7
He holds the lantern and he surely does it good

G                        C                 G
She hacks and hacks away until her back is sprained

          C                     D7                       G
While her son holds the lantern so her eyes will not get strained


                                  D7
You'll never find him stopping to take a holiday

                                G
Cause when it comes to chopping every day is Mother' Day

                                C
While she's perspiring her dear son is most inspiring
 
             G                 D7               G
He holds the lantern while his mother chops the wood


                               C                G
He holds the lantern while his mother chops the wood

                              D7
While she is pantin' he pants too that's understood
 
G                            C               G
He's tender hearted when she chops he almost cries 

               C                  D7                   G
He can't stand seeing mother work so he just shuts his eyes


                                       D7
He's big and strong and healthy and he weighs two fifty net
 
                                G
But moving those big muscles is what he ain't done yet

                                   C
But he's sure respected her and to show he's not neglectin' her

             G                 D7               G
He holds the lantern while his mother chops the wood
